Description of problem: Recently introduced by the following python-rhsm commit is a new/optional configuration for [server] server_timeout that should be described in the man page for rhsm.conf provided by the subscription-manager package. Commit: 5780140650a59d45a03372a0390f92fd7c3301eb Allow users to set socket timeout. Remove the old method of setting a universal timeout (which was required due to limitations in Python versions that we don't support any more) and instead specify the timeout on a per-connection basis. You will now see it as an available configuration in...
